What is 45% of 72

72/x=100/45
(72/x)*x=(100/45)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
72=2.22222222222*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.22222222222) to get x
72/2.22222222222=x 
32.4=x 
x=32.4

What is the solution set for x2+25=0

Masja [62]

Step-by-step explanation:

${x}^{2} + 25 = 0 \\ \therefore {x}^{2} = - 25 \\ \therefore {x} = \sqrt{ - 25} \\ \therefore {x} = \pm\sqrt{ - 1 \times 25} \\ \therefore {x} = \pm \sqrt{ 25} \times \sqrt{ - 1} \\ \therefore {x} = \pm5 \: i \\ \therefore {x} = \{ - 5i, \: \: 5i \} \: \\ is \: the \: solution \: set.$
